THE
New American Dream Interview
LEN OSANIC, 51, lives in Vancouver, Canada.
Since 2000 he has been the host of Black Op Radio, with a conspiracy research format.
The show runs once a week and recently hit the 400 mark.
The rest of the week Len works as a Recording engineer.
NAD: Len, hello, welcome.
How did you get started with the show?
Why?
How did you get to know Fletcher Prouty?
Was the show in any way his idea?
LEN OSANIC:
I had been doing radio interviews with Col. Fletcher Prouty to promote his CD-ROM I produced and when he became ill, I considered I could do as good a job as the interviews I was getting so I started call the people I wanted to talk to.
I own a recording studio and just started.
NAD: You had a guest-host at one time, now you are flying solo? Correct?
Isn't that a lot of prep work, production work, promotion work, funding work for one person?
LEN OSANIC:
It is an interest so I don't see it as work. I don't have to answer to anyone so it is ideal really
I do have fans who help. One sends out the podcasts and another writes the show notes
NAD: You've been grinding this out week after week for a long time, and through some times when perhaps the only encouragement you got was to quit.
How did you keep going?
Do you feel you and we have come through the worst times, as far as coming through the fog of disbelief and disinformation? Is there any reason for hope?
LEN OSANIC:
Being interested in history and human nature is not grinding to me.
Trying to understand the world we live in.
And I provide information for others, that is my service to the community.
I hate interviews where they cut people off always getting to something important then saying hold that thought we'll be right back.
Then they never do.
So I archive what I think are important interviews with authors, film makers, writers to get their views.
NAD: Any idea how many listeners you have?
Any idea what impact you are having? Are you having a good time?
Do your listeners become your friends.
How does the show help you in any personal way?
Do you feel better because you are at least trying?
LEN OSANIC:
I am getting a couple thousand a week and about 700 podcast subscribers
NAD: Do you have a favorite subject? JFK, RFK? 911?
Do you also go into UFOs?
LEN OSANIC:
I don't talk about UFO's, leave that to George Noory.
I interview people who have some real research to offer mostly to illuminate what is already out there.
And Black Op Radio is a catalyst for researchers.
I am often getting new book and films so they is research work going on.
NAD: What does your family think about your efforts?
Why is a Canadian so interested in all these American History problems?
What do you think about America? Do you hate us? Do you see any hope in Clinton? I mean, in Obama?
First of all you have to know a fair bit to really get Black Op Radio.
I think someone would be overwhelmed with the information if they were not already familiar with the topics discussed.
NAD: What else would you like to add?
What else should I have asked?
If you don't understand the assassinations of JFK, RFK, MLK it is hard to ask someone to investigate Paul Wellstone plane crash or 911.
Big money and governments protect themselves and kill to protect.
That is a fact of life people have found uncomfortable to examine.
Now if you examine big drug cartels and vaccinations you will find the same thing.
Follow the money was never more true.
Learn and understand first then we can suggest solutions.
Being Canadian I am simply amazed the Bush and Limbaugh just go on as if nothing has happened.
I also run the Col. L.Fletcher Prouty Reference Site. www.prouty.org
Thanks,
Len Osanic
